This logo reminds of the "time tunnel" in the old "The Time Tunnel" TV show. Hollywood's idea of science fiction, mysterious & endless tunnel you can't escape from is not something I associate with plan9. If anything it takes the mystery out of good OS design! To me Plan9 is closer to a bucket of Lego Technics parts (and less Pirates of Caribbean kind of Lego sets). Small, well designed, high quality parts that are highly composable, fun to play with & what you can build with is limited only by your imagination. Funny how we all see something different in the same graphic!
